Just stumbled onto this "debate", being gone for a week and DRIVING my LS powered camaro on its maiden voyage 2o85 miles, ummmmmm got 24.85 mpg doing 80 most the way, spinning 2000 rpm (3:73's& t-56) stock.

Well, I'm sold through experience.......if ya asked me two months ago, I may have giving you a different answer....but nothing like seat time

P.s., about three runs up to a hundred, and plenty of "foot in it" driving....but know I've got some minor driveline issues, can u say "new chassis" in the works for phase III?

Well this motor has peaked my interest. Need more info as the motor is out of Dad's 62 Bubble Top 409 right now.

This engine is $21.5k as depicted but is all aluminum. Ive seen other vendors doing iron blocks for less. I didnt say it was cheap, but it is not astronomical either.

Are you serious?? You'd have to had been living down a rabbit hole to not know about Walden and the aluminum block 409.... it's been in the works for years - and as such has been in every hot rod magazine about a zillion times.

Come on Marty -- put down Mud Bike Weekly and pick up a real magazine... :snapout: :action-smiley-027: :lol:
